Dr. Gautam said that he had asked the poor country like Nepal about six months ago whether to buy the vaccine or use it as a concession. He said that Nepal has stated that about 20 percent of the population, i.e., 6 million doses are needed for concessions and the response came with a commitment about a month and a half ago to ‘provide’.
